Today we climbed up Hani to get rock samples. Hani and Hæna means Cock and Chick and they are very small islands west off Heimaey, the main island of the Westman islands. It was quite a steep climb but probably is easy peasy for good climbers... which I am not :) But all went well and the island is amazing, a puffin haven with stunning views. Thousands of puffins whirled up when we got there and they kept flying in circles waiting for us to pass. Climbing down pictures were taken by Ingvar Atli Sigurðsson. More pictures HERE !!!
